Unputdownable Romance for Women: Care to Take a Look?
First, a disclaimer: The list owner has been a seasoned bookworm for ten years, growing up and changing along with all kinds of stories. I'm super picky!! (o´罒`o) "In short, this list covers all kinds of women's fiction, but the quality is always guaranteed" [1] Everyone has different tastes. You might not love every book, but each one I recommend has its own strengths (^_^) [2] I have a personal preference for historical romance, so most of my recommendations are period romances.

Ancient betrothal
In ancient times, people would immediately change their address after an engagement; otherwise, it was considered impolite. This was because people were very cautious in their actions; the engagement itself signified commitment. If the woman broke off the engagement without cause and married someone else, it was said that her father would be sentenced to ten strokes of the cane.
Marriage proposal
For Young Master Liang to succeed in his marriage proposal, he must use strategy. In ancient times, it was not uncommon for concubine's daughters to become princesses; even Empress Guo, wife of Cao Pi, was a maid. Being a concubine's daughter isn't the issue; it depends on the family background and the woman herself.
I couldn't continue watching after watching half of it.
I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but I couldn't continue watching halfway through. The female lead was like an idiot. Shouldn't she follow the rules of ancient times? Her relationship with that guy, Liang or something, developed in the same way—it felt like she was forced into it. I'm speechless. The female lead's halo is really too strong.
I'm getting angrier and angrier as I watch. Is the female lead an idiot?!
The food scenes were decent, but the plot development and writing style were lacking.
The female lead deserves to be criticized. She didn't offer the necessary prescriptions, instead demanding exorbitant prices. Take Young Master Ning, for example. His aunt is the Empress, though not particularly favored, she's still the Empress, and will eventually become the Empress Dowager. How could she not respect Young Master Ning? She's incredibly generous with trivial matters, sending prescriptions everywhere—putting the cart before the horse.
I don't understand why so many people say it's good? It's clearly a light novel.
Something that could be explained in a single sentence can't be explained in a hundred chapters.
Too many foreshadowing elements, too many villains, none of them get their comeuppance, the story is incomplete and unfinished, and the characters are disgusting, like the female lead's father.
To be honest, the female lead is a cooking fanatic. Cooking is the purpose of her life. She has no sense of right and wrong. As long as she can cook and people like to eat her food, everything is okay. Whether the food is good or bad is not important at all. The original owner was neglected and starved to death by the people in the mansion.
